Reports of celebs that state they're showing off their INCREDIBLY toned abs, or legs, or arms and then the images show no muscle.
Female characters in cartoons getting muscled as a throwaway gimmick and they lose it all.
A muscled female but they're just a background character.
Some character visits a gym and there's only men lifting weights.
Girls and women who possess superhuman strength but aren't visibly muscled.
Muscled women being used for a joke now that fat jokes are off limits
Maybe there is a movie trope called "Checkov's Female Bodybuilder" where if there is ever a woman in the gym lifting there automatically has to be an entire scene with her. falling into one of the other stupid tropes lol.
Oh! I was shooting by TV last night and saw this whole bit on a cartoon where a woman was trying to get these kids super buff and... I guess she did. But I had never seen any of these wacky children before. They also had a black chef who took their game tablets away. They were antagonist mean to her, but the show was pretty cool about her crossfitty buffness
This is a small cliche in cartoons - comedy ones, not serious adventure ones - and it's done with males just as often as FBBs. The legs are out of proportion with the rest of the body, and look like non-bodybuilder legs (either completely or almost completely).
It's a harmless little joke, but it seems like a missed opportunity - why not give the MBB or the FBB legs that go with everything else?
Hollywood bigoted?? Ya think?!!!
